[QUOTE="Droid101, post: 2024765, member: 942"] “So… you have brought me the book?” she was beautiful and horrible at the same time. Soft features. Pearly skin. Feathery white wings. But she had sinister black eyes. She wore black lingerie, and sat upon a fine throne. “I have,” Bink replies. His rainbow robe starting to scintillate. “Turn it over to me, and consider your debt repaid,” Indiffines the Wretched says with a seductive voice. Her eyes flared an evil only possible from an erinyes. “And if I choose to keep it?” Bink says. The air around him almost electric from the latent magic ready to leap forth. “Then I will have no choice but to kill you, and take it,” she tilts her head, staring directly into Bink’s eyes, trying her best to [I]dominate[/I] him. Bink didn’t waver. Bink just stared right back. However, Bink’s gaze began to overtake her. She felt a fear she never knew possible. She had seen the most vile creatures in all the levels of Hell, but she could not muster the will to hold the gaze. She turned away, and in that split second of hesitation, she flitted away, nothing more than dust. Bink put his hand down, which was still glowing slightly from the [I]disintegrate[/I] spell he struck her with, right between the eyes. He turned and left her palace behind.

So loud and piercing that it rattles their very bones. From one side, they see a greenish-skinned female with feathery wings, glistening armor, and a polished silver trumpet. From the other, a celestial looking half-man half-hound, who charges them wielding a cold iron greatsword. The female angel’s trumpet changes into a greatsword as well, and she charges.
